A user reports that their computer is running slowly, often taking a long time to open applications and perform basic tasks.
What is the best initial step to diagnose this issue?
Reboot the computer
Upgrade the RAM
Reinstall the operating system
Check for malware
Rebooting the computer is an essential first step in troubleshooting sluggish performance. This action can clear temporary files, reset processes that may be using excessive resources, and resolve any minor memory leaks or software glitches that could be causing the slowdown.
Other options, such as reinstalling applications or adding resources, may be necessary later depending on the results following the reboot. However, they are more involved steps and not the first course of action to identify the problem.
